[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DROCSID:
Hi there,

Have been using since a while the Energy Rom's.

Always had HSPL2 in use with a Energy Rom and

the most stable Radio.

Well since a week of 2 I can't flash anymore. I still

have HSPL2, used TASK29 to clean everything up.

Now I can't flash a new Energy Rom, it keeps hanging

on 100%. I can do the TASK29, but after using TASK29,

and trying to flash a new rom it keeps hanging. It gives

me an Error-message called 262; but I checked everything

(other pc, cable, other USB port everything).

Has anyone a idea what to do? I haven't been able to

use my phone for 2 weeks now!

:(

(last versions I used: RadioRUU_Leo_Radio_15.40.50.07U_2.12.50 ROM-Energy.Leo.23569.Sense2.5.Cookie.Jun.22)

Cheers!

Anyone? pleaaaaaaaaaaseeeeeee
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Demon_man:
what info does you're bootloader show
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DROCSID:
Well I've got some new info!

I installed HSPL3 this evening, with 2.08SPL,

wiped the phone with task29, rebooted, put

in the USB cable, flashed the new dinik glass

16th july Energy Rom and that worked. After

that I hard resetted my phone and again put

in the USB, tried to flash a radio but now THAT

keeps stucking @ 96% (Radio_2_12_50_02_2).

What could that be? Tried under Vista, Windows 7

XP, 3 different laptops, other cable; everything.

I wiped it again and again. Also tried with 2.07 one

but that also doesn't work!

Do you have any idea?

;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Demon_man:
em this is a good en lol, have you tried to flash a radio then hard reset then task 29 then flash rom then hard reset again?? its just ideas
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DROCSID:
Also tried ;-)

Doesn't work for me :(

Keeps hanging
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Johev:
Did you try the micr sd method. the one where you do not need to use your PC. Might be silly but it would eliminate any problem with the PC or cable.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DROCSID:
will try it this evening

but I don't think thats the problem? because I CAN use my usb

to flash the energy rom
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faelok:
how long are you waiting? the reason I ask is because I flashed Radio 2.12 just a few hours ago and it hung at 96% for a couple min before it finally finished up.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pnxsinned:
idd, that radio version hangs for some time on 96%, so give it more time :P
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DROCSID:
Serious guys?

Hmmm then I will task29 my phone within a few minutes

and flash rom again + radio, and then just wait with the

radio until it's ready! Good plan!!!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DROCSID:
Still not working guys! I'm really really fed up with this phone.

Haven't been able to use the phone for ages now. Have tried

to flash radio and rom for about 1000x times; the TASK29

works, after that I flash the ROM that works 6/10 times,

after that I hardreset the phone, and sometimes it will boot

untill the white bootscreen and otherwise I can't even turn

it on (problem with 3-pins battery connector?) and I have to

wait or have to pull out the battery again and again. But after

all, the radio can't be flashed at all, it keeps hanging on 96%

over and over and over again.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digao100nocao:
Hello dude!

Try downloading another radio version.

Try also downloading again the 2.12 radio. It could be a download corruption! I heard a case like yours and it was caused by "bad download" ;)

Tell us if it works, right?

Good luck!

I downloaded the WWE stockrom (1.43 or do I need a higher number) from the

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dobreandl:
You should dowload it from htc site , at least is what i did then hardspl it to a 0000000 version like 1.48.0000000000000 or 43 what was that , then try an install the original os is should work at leas it worked for me

Ok now downloading the shipped rom from the HTC site

So I have to download it? And just install?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DROCSID:
I filled in my SN on the HTC site and it says I need to download this ROM:

RUU_Leo_HTC_NLD_1.66.404.1_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.51.07_Ship

Is this correct you think?

And strange the radio that it's included is a .51?

But I have a 512 MB HD2 i thought?

:confused:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morpheus1982:
Just noticed your signature, how many phones do you need LOL?

Regarding the phone you have, did the seller give a reason for wanting to sell? I have a .51 radio from an official European ROM. Are the 512 Mb HD2's for the US? I cannot remember now...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DROCSID:
All those mate whehehe, need the blackberry for my job, the HD2 used to be my personal number / phone but since I can't use it anymore I had to look for another one ;-).

But the HD2 was sold through the dutch provider here (Tele2) and I seriously don't know anymore which ROM was on there! In the beginning I tasked29 it, flashed a correct rom and radio. But after that it went wrong.

:mad:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
if thats teh rom your serial advises, then yes, use that rom until you get your phone working again, . (Because 1 - it doesnt matter whether hspl is installed or not to flash it and 2 - You can always change it later)

First try flashing it from usb, if that doesnt work, extract the RUU_Signed.nbh file from it, and flash that from sd card.

To extract it, use winzip or winrar. The .exe file is really just a zip file that can be executed. So DONT run it, right click it and choose extract here (or similar words) that will give about 9 files, one of which is about 200Meg in size, and called RUU_Signed.nbh, , that is the file you rename to leoimg.nbh and copy to your 2gb FAT32 formatted sd card.

oh, and ALL non-tmous phones come with a .51. radio. Thats why so many tmous users have bricked their phones by flashing non tmous stock roms.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dobreandl:
Yes try to install it , also mine was a ndl phone :P
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DROCSID:
Ok clear! Nope, have tried it over 1000 times by USB, so now I pulled out the memorycard, put it in my BB, formatted it on FAT32, because I don´t have a memorycardreader in the office. I extracted at the files with Winrar to a directory and copied all the files to my formatted SD card.

(check htc.jpeg)

And now?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
you only need 1 file, RUU_Signed.nbh - rename it to LEOIMG.nbh and then start the phone into bootloader and it 'should' detect the file LEOIMG,nbh and recognise it as a rom image, and start to flash.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DROCSID:
It's now flashing :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DROCSID:
Well stuck again I think @ 9% or so?

check:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
ahhh. Well in that case, im sorry, not sure what to suggest.

On the plus side, the fact that it got as far as 9% 'should' mean that the spl has been reset to stock, so warranty shouldn't be a problem.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dobreandl:
soft reset it hard reset it reinstall active sync and pull the battery out while working , try again flashing via usb the rom you have downloadede from htc site
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DROCSID:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _JuSteR_:
Hi

If you have my same problem, well... I'm sorry but I solved it by selling the HD2 as bricked. :(

I couldn't flash any cooked or official rom just because my radio system was bricked due to a bad flash (I suppose). This means that your radio is unupgradable.

If you have the same problem you have only two choices:

1 - you can go on using your hd2 without updating the radio. Try to download a rom without radio and install it, or ask a cook to prepare a rom (you can try an official rom if you want to recover the original SPL) without radio for you.

2 - Do what I did and sell the phone as bricked, because there's no way to unbrick radio system. I tried to save my HD2 by recovering the original SPL and sending the phone to the htc customer service. I got the phone back after 2 months and it was still radio bricked :mad:

I hope you'll solve the problem as soon as possible :rolleyes:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wilco:
Does your insurance cover "accidental damage?"

Then do following to brick it for coverage: walk next to your car, "lose" the phone (drop it in front of your wheel.... ) Drive away, recover your phone, send it for repair....

Or.... accidentally drop it from your pocket whilst you are at the 10th floor of an appartment building (making sure it flies to the street, not on the hallway :) )

Or.... let someone steal it.......

[Captivate Android Development] larry996:
I have been playing around with ATT Android phones over the last several months. I started with a Nexus One, nice phone very fast. Then purchased an Aria for the fun of it... again fast phone but too small. Lastly yesterday I picked up the Captivate, and with a 1ghz, the Aria seems faster than this phone. Seems to lag between screens and boot. Is it just me or anyone else see this? Is there a quick fix for this? Anyone?

Oh I hate touchwiz, worthless crap for a UI.....loaded ADW launcher instead

thanks

Larry
[Captivate Android Development] tbae2:
It really is a software thing with Touchwiz. After I installed Launcher pro I never looked back and it has been a lot faster.
[Captivate Android Development] wpb2:
There may be a bunch of apps running slowing the phone down. I have Advanced task killer, and kill a bunch of app every once in a while when It starts feeling slow.
[Captivate Android Development] wpb2:
Where did you find this Launcher pro, and how much faster is it than stock?
[Captivate Android Development] shaneaus:
Check #17 out in this post. The Euro version owners have known about this for some time.

There are some fixes - but, most likely not until we can get some custom ROMS.
[Captivate Android Development] iLoki:
Launcher Pro helps a lot, just search the app market for it.
[Captivate Android Development] BoostedSR20:
Ive been doing side by side comparisons of my N1 running CM6 and the Captivate all day. The Captivate is faster 95% of the time. Both running ADW launcher.
[Captivate Android Development] larry996:
You can load ADW or LauncherPro from the Market. When you set as default home, you will not be able to use "Touchwiz" widgets.......
[Captivate Android Development] Ryukeima:
A crapload faster. After installing it, the device is like lightning , haven't had any pauses. Just search the market. Think it is a beta.
[Captivate Android Development] pongothemagnificent:
Yes to all new samsung galaxy S owners get rid of the ****ty touchwiz launcher it sucks and its laggy as hell, get launcher pro instead.
[Captivate Android Development] Kagoshema:
whats the best widget pack to replace the touchwiz ones

is there a way to port sense widgets? (push from a htc/pull to captivate or something)
[Captivate Android Development] systoxity:
eventually. Widget packs.. hmm you should just try out new stuff, explore and what not :)
[Captivate Android Development] shaneaus:
Also, new news so to speak - LauncherPro will be coming out with a lot of integrated widgets that are similar to the SenseUI widgets.

Koxx - here on xda has made some really great widgets. I think I have purchased them all. MoonSpoon (used to be a very active themer and now is a lurker due to being busy elsewhere) made themes for all of Koxx's widgets.
[Captivate Android Development] decepticon:
If I just want to go back to the default Android drawer can I install the Launcher.apk from a Cyanogen 5.8 rom?
[Captivate Android Development] sl8125:
Even with Launcher Pro there seems to be some lagging issues. On the Vibrant thread, the a subject on Fixing Stalling/Lagging. On the vibrant it seems you can partition your SD card and have the files run off of it. They said that it runs faster on the sd card then the built in memory card. I trying to do this procedure but kind of stuck. I can't seem to get the phone in download mode. Still searching around if i can find out i let you guys know. Meantime check out the thread and if you find out or know how post it up on the Captivate side. Not much instructions on "HOW TO MOD CAPTIVATE" in our thread.

[Captivate Android Development] dougp.me:
Arguably, I don't see why this wouldn't work on the Captivate. Granted, I'm not going to be the one to try it right now, but it really should work just like that. Anyone feeling ballsy enough to give it a try?
[Captivate Android Development] sl8125:
I trying to get it done. but i am just not sure how it's done. trying to follow procedure but can't get pass step one. LOL
[Captivate Android Development] Croak:
I did it. It works great.

No more stalling at the moment, and my Quadrant score went up 100 points as well.

But be sure to follow the steps, and make sure you have enough room in data/data, and keep in mind that you can still fill data/data up with app installation. Google Earth is particularly bad about eating space here.

And keep in mind that the Galaxy S people that did this find that eventually it starts to stall again, so this is a band-aid.

When I get home tonight, I'll try the better, more effective SD card method, don't have an easy way to make an /ext3 partition on an SD card at the moment.
[Captivate Android Development] dougp.me:
You need an external SD card, a program that will let you partition the ext3 format, and then you just need to follow their commands. Where are you getting stuck, maybe I can help guide you.
[Captivate Android Development] dougp.me:
There's a few tools, but most will require a live CD to utilize.
[Captivate Android Development] Croak:
Root the phone.

Install the Android SDK on your PC.

Install Busybox from the market.

Turn on USB Debugging (Settings/Applications/Development).

Plug USB cable in phone.

With the phone unlocked (so you can see the screen) and plugged in, run CMD, and change directory to your SDK /tools directory.

Type adb shell and hit return.

You should see:

$

Type su and hit return

You'll get a SuperUser request on your phone, accept it. If you don't get a request, you ain't rooted.

You'll see # on the PC.

From there, start entering in the commands in the modmymobile link, starting with the "du -h|busybox grep M" You should get a dump of text like this:

"2.9M ./com.sec/android/app.sns/files/ReceivedFiles" (with several lines, which will vary depending on what you have installed) and ending with a lonely number at the end like this:

"34.6M ."

That last number is the key, it needs to be small, under 130M. If it's larger, try uninstalling programs and checking it again. If you can't get it small enough, walk away. Do not attempt the next steps.

If it's small enough, follow the rest of the steps on the modmymobile page. Double and TRIPLE check what you're typing before you hit enter on any line. Then check it again.

Also, If you're confused about the pipe symbol (the |, it is found on the forward slant key (hit shift) on US keyboards, and looks like two stacked lines in the command prompt, not a solid bar.

Thanks. Here is where i am at. I got these steps from Android@Modoco.

#1: download the tar file attached to this post, this includes the modified kernel which supports ext3 and automounts the ext3 partition when you restart your phone. (done. and converted my sd card with less then 1gb of Fat32 and 1gb of ext3.)

#2: put the phone in download mode, just like updating the firmware (I am assuming there talking about recovery mode. I found upload mode but i don't this is it)

#3: fire up Odin (I downloaded from a sticky @ I9000 how to thread. file was called odin3 v.1.0) and attach the phone to the USB

#4: choose only the PDA section and put the downloaded tar into there (Done. But nothing happens. so i thought i have to hit start the process so i did. odin started and on the message box "file analysis and my phone just sat there. no reboot.)

The thread said "it should finish within 5 seconds and wait till the phone is booted" but i got nothing. something i didn't do right i think. i am not sure.

Any suggestion?
[Captivate Android Development] sl8125:
so ext4 has less wear and tear on the flash memory? i am assuming it will last longer. I have a partition tool but it didn't have the option to create ext4 only ext3. i guess i need to looking for a new tool then.
[Captivate Android Development] dewt:
I'm not sure if ext4 is in our kernel yet tbh. You could try formatting on a linux box and then plugging it into your phone to see if it will work. I might try this later tonight if I get a chance.
[Captivate Android Development] sl8125:
Well there is a modified kernal to be used with ext4. There are programs that can covert the sd card to ext4. Just like how i did mine to ext3.

Anyways, someone posted these modified kernals aren't compatible with Captivate. I just need to go with the other method of relocating the database to the sd card.

Here are the links to the kernals. Take a look. I would if i could. but.... don't chit about chit. you know what i mean. i just love modifying the chit out of my phone. LOL
